    If you don’t stir the pasta adequately after adding it to the pot that can make it stick together. Source: my husband does this all the freaking time.

      Your stir at the beginning to ensure that each piece of pasta is properly engulfed by water. But after that there really shouldn’t be much need of stirring, the pasta moves around in the water on its own.

      I usually just snap mine in half, and throw it in boiling water with a bit of salt. I haven’t stirred pasta in years.
